A horse of a different color!

Decided to bring this over from the other forum, so I could have it here to see.

My goals for 2008:*Plant a veggie garden.*Finish painting my house.*Finish losing weight (will have to wait until after baby, but I'll get there eventually).*Be more frugal.*Start painting for fun.*Catch up on scrapbooking.

My want to do at least before I die list:* I want to fix up an old/historic home * I want to live on a farm (10 acres or more) and own my own horses * I want to landscape my whole yard myself * I want to live in (or at least travel to) Montana once * I want to open a coffee shop/bookstore/gift shop/craft store (or any combination of those) * I want to play clarinet regularly * I want to learn to play the guitar and the piano * I want to possibly go back to school for an MLS * I want to vist the Northwest (Washington state or Oregon, particularly the coast) * I want to start painting * I want to learn to sew * I want to publish a book, story, or poem * I want to see the British Isles (they are really the only places not in the US that I want to see. Italy would be nice, but is not a requirement)

As always, I reserve the right to add or take away from these lists as I see fit.
